Bertone Concept Cars Being Auctioned

If you've ever dreamed of owning a stunning one-off concept car now's your chance. Carrozzeria Bertone, one of the most revered automotive design houses in the world, went bankrupt a few years ago and now six of the most famous cars it designed are up for auction sale at the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este, Como, Italy on 21st May.

These cars had been displayed in the Bertone museum but have to be sold as part of the liquidation of the company's assets. It is the first time these cars have been offered fro sale and fans of Bertone's designs are hopeful they will be purchased by buyers who will place them on display in museums so they will not be hidden from public view.

Apart from these unique Bertone concept cars, RM Auctions will also be auctioning about 30 other high-end cars, including a tremendously valuable 1953 Ferrari 250 MM Pinin Farina Berlinetta and a rare 1965 Ford GT Works Prototype Roadster. The company expects the average price of the cars being sold at the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este will reach €1,000,000 each ($1,419,200 at today's exchange rate).
